What lighting?

lilasianman316 · 01/09/2012, 07:36 PM

I bought a Mr. Aqua 11 gal or so, and I've been searching for an led fixture. Should I get a kessil 10000k, Ai nano, or diy aquastyle (6 blue, 6 white, and 2 uv). Kinda siding on the kessil or ai because i need to build a fixture for the diy

I think the Kessil is not dimable, (You would have to double check) That much light on a tank that tall would be way overkill probably to bright, yes you could always raise it, but how high you would need to raise it I am not sure. The do it yourself you know what the drawbacks are. The AI Nano would be my choice. Dimmable, reliable, and well known in the industry.
